Thanks for chatting with me, Steve. It will be fun building on this little messenger. Hi mnrvovrfc, I wondered who that was.
I changed a couple lines to suit my taste, added a blinking cursor showing where I am typing, and also added a CLS in the view print area because long messages just didn't clear right for me. Here it is in case others want to add it. In the SendMessage SUB I edited the VIEW PRINT area code to this:

Code: (Select All)
VIEW PRINT 22 TO 24: CLS '<<< Added CLS to clear all
'LOCATE 22, 1: PRINT SPACE$(80); ' erase previous message displayed '<<< not needed now
LOCATE 22, 1: PRINT myname$ + ": "; mymessage$;
IF INT(RND * 2) = 1 THEN PRINT "_"; ELSE PRINT " "; '<<< show a blinking cursor
